Summary: KB Series Submersible pumps feature…
-
Abrasive resistant chrome iron components;
-
Agitator - to fluidize settled solids into suspension.
-
Wear plate - replaceable hardened surface on the suction side where erosion would cause a loss of pump performance.
-
Semi- open Impeller - to handle some solids.
-
EVERY KB pump model is protected by;
-
Class H motor insulation - and built in amperage ( FLA ) and temperature overload protection.
-
Double mechanical seals - SiC/SiC lower & Carbon Ceramic upper in a separate oil filled seal chamber.
-
Heavy Duty Lip Seal - additional protection for the mechanical seals.
-
Stainless steel shaft and shaft sleeve - saves on shaft wear due to abrasives and corrosion.
-
The KB Series are top discharge pumps;
-
KB pumps are utility pumps - frequently dragged from one site to another. The KB doesn’t have a side discharge connection that can break off or be damaged as it is pulled and pushed into place.
-
Top discharge pumps are cooled by pumped liquid - The KB pumps can pump a sump or pit down to within "inches" of the bottom. A side discharge pump without a cooling jacket must stay submerged to avoid overheating, leaving as much as 3 feet of un-pumped slurry.
-
Top discharge means "SLIM" - even the largest model with a 13.5 inch "waistline" will fit down a manhole with a hose attached. High-Chrome Agitator helps keep solids suspended in liquid and helps prevent pump from clogging.
High-Chrome Agitator helps keep solids suspended in liquid and helps prevent pump from clogging.
